Περιγραφή

The use of sampled-data multirate-output controllers for model reference adaptive control of possibly non-stably invertible linear systems with unknown parameters is investigated. Multirate-output controllers contain a multirate sampling mechanism with different sampling period at each system output. Such a control allows us to assign an arbitrary discrete-time transfer function matrix for the sampled closed-loop system and does not make assumptions on the plant other than controllability, observability and the knowledge of two sets of structural indices, namely the controllability and the observability indices. An indirect adaptive control scheme based on these sampled-data controllers is proposed which estimates the unknown plant parameters (and consequently the controller parameters) on-line from sequential data of the inputs and the outputs of the plant, which are recursively updated within the time limit imposed by a fundamental sampling period T-0. Using the proposed adaptive algorithm, the model reference adaptive control problem is reduced to the determination of a fictitious static state feedback controller owing to the merits of multirate-output controllers. Known indirect model reference adaptive control techniques usually resort to the direct computation of dynamic controllers. The controller determination reduces to the simple problem of solving a linear algebraic system of equations, whereas in known indirect model reference adaptive control techniques, matrix polynomial Diophantine equations usually need to be solved. Moreover, persistent excitation of the continuous-time plant is provided without making any special richness assumption on the reference signals.
